Public TV, Armenia
Dec 4 2006
[Presenter] A NATO-Armenia working meeting on crisis management was
held today at the information centre of the Armenian Rescue Service.
Discussions were organized on three directions in Armenia’s Individual
Partnership Action Plan with NATO. NATO experts and Armenian rescue
specialists will discuss future steps towards the development of the
national system of crisis management during the two-day meeting.
[Director of Armenian Rescue Service Edik Barsegyan] I consider
it important to set up a crisis management centre in Armenia which
would meet international standards. This will be the main core in
managing crisis.
[NATO expert Evert Somer, in English with Armenian voice-over] The
main thing is cooperation during critical situations. Armenia is an
active participant in NATO’s Partnership for Peace programme. We are
confident that this partnership will be a great success.
